PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF FINE AGGREGATE BY GLASS POWDER IN CONCRETE OBJECTIVE: ™ To evaluate the utility of glass powder as a partial replacement of fine aggregate in concrete. ™ To study and compare the performance conventional concrete and glass powder concrete. = To understand the effectiveness of glass powder in strength enhancement. INTRODUCTION: ® Concrete is a widely used material in the world. Based on global usage it is placed at second position after water. ™ River sand is one of the constituents used in the production of conventional concrete has become highly expensive and also scare. = In the backdrop of such a bleak atmosphere, there is a large demand for alternative materials from industrial waste. Some alternative materials have already been used as a part of natural sand. Cont.. » Similarly the waste glass are collected from the shops are used. The collected glasses are crushed to sand size and it could be used an alternate material for natural sand as partial replacement “ m In brief, successful utilization of glass as fine aggregate will turn this waste material into a valuable resource.

Cement sets or cures when mixed with water which causes a series of hydration chemical reactions. TYPE OF CEMENT USED: OPC 53 grade, ulira tech. ® Fine Aggregate Fine Aggregate, in building and construction, material used for mixing with cement, bitumen, lime, gypsum, or other adhesive to form concrete or mortar. Fine aggregate size conforming to sieve passing through 2.36mm ™ COARSE AGGREGATE: Coarse aggregates are particles greater than 4.75mm, but generally range between 9.5mm to 37.5mm in diameter. size of coarse aggregate:20mm ™ GLASS POWDER: Using waste glass in the concrete construction sector is idvantageous, as the production cost of concrete will go down. Waste glasses are used as aggregates for concrete. = WATER: The quantity of water in the mix plays a vital role on the strength of the concrete. The pH valueof water,hall be not less thané.
